Wow, I had no idea Allen was such a dumbass. I'm watching the videos now and he's almost as dumb as President Bush. Senator Dodd is making him look like a complete jackass on Social Security. Allen sounds completely unsure of himself and is dancing around the issue.
Now Russert is making him look like a complete dumbass on judges. Allen says "well, I have different numbers". A half-smart politician should be able to embarrass Allen in any debate.
This is what scares me most about him. He is very average-joeish. Voters tend to like candidates that they feel they can relate to.
Yes, in this Republican party, the more inept you are, the higher you go.
